Jacob Dannen is very kind, understanding, and helpful to have as a lawyer.

I had a great experience with this firm. I found myself in a complicated family situation. Jacob Dannen and his team made me feel like I was seen. They did their job by presenting evidence and helping me resolve the legal situation I was in. They were amazing at communication and were very open to an...swer any questions I had in a timely manner. I am very thankful to have had a team like them on my side.

Great Family Law Attorney

I had previously hired Jacob Dannen to represent me in child support enforcement against my ex-husband when he was working for another law firm. I was extremely happy with the services he provided me that I sought him out to represent me regarding conservatorship of my grandchild. I highly recommen...d Jacob with Key Law Office if you need a compassionate, professional, and knowledgeable family law attorney.

Great Family Law Attorney

I guess nobody really wins in a divorce but at the end of the day the divorce resulted in my favor. Jacob did a fantastic job looking out for me, keeping my best interest as his top priority. If I have anymore family law needs I will be reaching out to Jacob.

Feeling Like a Phoenix

Going through a divorce is hard enough, let alone when the other person is being completely unreasonable about everything. Jacob was there every step of the way to guide me and help me fight for what was fair. He started at Evans Family Law and chose a new path with Key Law Office during our time tog...ether. I choose to stay with him during his transition and I couldn’t be happier. He is very knowledgeable and understanding, but isn’t afraid to be tough when needed. I have really enjoyed working with him, and will always recommend him as a lawyer!

Profesional, Responsive

I was very pleased working with Mr. Dannen and his assistants with Evans Family Law on my amicable divorce. They made the process run very smoothly and responded quickly to my questions, needs, and requests. I also felt that they genuinely cared about my case and were helpful to both parties. The ...court took a bit of extra time signing off on our case, but they stayed after them and updated me regularly. Plus, they had very reasonable rates. I would definitely recommend Evans Law.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have had several highly contested family law hearings with Mr. Dannen that have lasted several days each time. Jacob was well prepared and represented his clients very well. My dealings with him as a co-professional in the area and community are very good. He responds quickly to requests and doesn't play games as he looks for what is in the best interests of his clients. I would hire him if I needed a family law attorney. Jacob is also very involved with the local Bar Association."
